Gravity and Grace by Respire
Around the Fur
A lot of people say White Pony, but Around The Fur is where it’s at.
White Pony is accessible and everyone knows it. Around the Fur has the best snare I’ve ever heard recorded.
That’s a total lie! St Anger had the best snare in history!
This album is dedicated to Lars’ new drum kit.
Best is subjective. But my favorite album of my favorite band is Rankarumpu by Korpiklaani. I was bummed to see their previous violin player go on hiatus, but the new violinist brought a new energy to this album. Title track
It’s a tie for me
Pearl Jam. (1991). Ten [Album]. Epic Records.
A Tribe Called Quest. (1991). The Low End Theory [Album]. Jive Records.
My fuck, Low End Theory is one of the best albums in history.
You on point, Tip?
All the time
Well, then grab the microphone and let your words rip.
Here’s my thing about ‘Ten’.
I love the first half of this album. It’s some of the best music I know in the genre. High energy, catchy, passionate. But somehow, the second half feels to me like the band ran out of ideas and gas. After ‘Jeremy’ it’s all pretty average, low-energy stuff, with the exception of ‘Garden’.
Porch is a banger for me.
Somewhere Far Beyond.
They just re-recorded it and it’s great.
"Now you all know…
Ween - Quebec
Favorite band is very tough. It’s probably Ween, and Quebec slightly over The Mollusk for meMmm, my order of favorite Ween albums would be Chocolate and Cheese, Quebec, White Pepper.
But Mollusk has some bangers on it too (Buckingham Green).
Why yes, yes I am down with the brown.
Did you listen to the Deluxe C&C yet? The “new” songs are really great
I have not! Gotta give that a listen, thanks for the heads-up!
Bleed American by Jimmy Eat World
Clarity is peak for me, but Bleed American is an amazing accomplishment
Fluisteraars first, dromers, is absolutely amazing
- Finch - Say Hello to Sunshine
- Paledusk - Palehell
- Faith no more - King for a day, fool for a lifetime
- Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
- Philipp Glass - Glassworks
- Henryk Mikołaj Górecki - Symphony of sorrowful Songs
- Fear Factory - Obsolete
- At The Drive-In - Relationship Of Command
- Boy sets fire - After The Eulogy
- Refused - The Shape of Punk to come (not a fan after their sell-out-reunion, but the album is still great)
44?
Fantastic Planet by Failure
Avalon by Roxy Music.
Dimension Hattross by Voivod.
Years ago I played on a MUD and met a dude who went by the name Hatross. He quit playing, and after a player wipe I started using the name in memory of my friend’s character. I had no idea where the name originated for years. I had since forgotten about the album until now.
Korgull is also often name/nick around, as a reference to the same band. Albums have strong story and atmosphere because of that.
Updoot for MUD
It was Sojourn/Toril MUD if you ever played there.
Both of those i have logged into, but didnt play them much. The mud i played was apparently very unique and was hard to find something similar.
I think sojourn is still running…if i get the itch to mud ill have to give it a serious try!
Sojourn became Toril, which is still running.
Ahhhh okay thanks friend!
Edit: interesting wiki on it!
Sojourn continued until 1996, when a difference in creative vision among the staff led to the project being forked into TorilMUD and Duris: Land of Bloodlust. Of the two, TorilMUD is regarded as the more direct inheritor of Sojourn’s legacy. Toril continued until 1998, when it became Sojourn 2, and underwent another rebirth in 2001 as Sojourn 3. Kris retired in 2003, and Sojourn 3 was reborn as TorilMUD, or as the old-time players refer to it, Toril 2. Throughout these rebirths, the areas and code continued to grow: there are currently 300 zones (with several more nearing completion), 16277 types of monsters/mobs, and 13753 different items.
Many TorilMUD staff members were staff on Sojourn 3, Sojourn 2, and some are even from Toril 1, providing a degree of continuity. All Toril staff started as players on the MUD, giving them a great deal of personal experience with the game.
I have been playing there off and on since the first pwipe that took it from Black Knight to Sojourn. Aradune (Brad McQuaid) of EverQuest played there too. There are a number of his guild mates in EQ (mostly Freeport guards) and a number of items from sojourn that made it into EQ.
